Washington Words.

WASHINGTON, March 22.-Colonel La
mont, in conversation to-day, in regard
to the Presidents health, showed that
the fears recently expressed by Dr..
Sewers. are not shared by the Presi-
dents family and intimate-friends. The
President, Colonel Lamont said, was, to
all appearances, in perfect heath. He
did not think DR.. Sewers was IN posi-
ton to judge OF the matter, as he
DID NOT KNOW THE President,
and what he said was, in the Colonel's
opinion, based merely on the assertion
that the President was gaining flesh and
took no exercise. This was not the case.
AS matter of fact, he continued, the
President weighs less than when he first
came to Washington, and really takes
as much exercise as most other men,
1t is true he does not walk about the
city, but he frequently walks in the
country, and there are other ways in
which he gets exercise. The Colonel
added that, altogether, the President is
in good condition, and there is no ap-
prehension in regard to his health.
The President has appointed the fol-
lowing
INTERSTATE COMMISSIONERS:
Thomas w. Cody of Michigan, FOR the
term OF six years; William R. Morrison
of Illinois, for the term of five years;
Augustus Schoonmaker, of New York,

Walker, of Vermont, for the term of

Fancy Umbrella Covers.

Every woman will say that an UNI
brella cover is a ''horrid nuisance" if
she says anything about it, and she is
very likely to. Yet it is all but q necess-
ity. None but an expert can roll an
umbrella SO that it looks neat without a
cover, and a silk umbrella proves :,
veryfrail thing indeed unless it is kept
encased. On the other hand. when
occasion arises to raise the umbrella,
what to do with the cover is a very
puzzling question to a lady. A man
can stuff it in his pocket, but dressmake
ers don't allow pockets nowadays. 1t
must be carried some way, and so ne
cessity in this case has proved to be the
mother of fashion as well as invention.
When the Fifth-avenue girls put up
their umbrellas they tie the covers in a
pretty brown bows about the handles, and
thus easily dispense with the nuisance.
To carry an umbrella without knot is
all dead wrong just now. The fashion
has led tothe adoption of g~ayly-covered
covers, v with plain black UNI
brellas.-New York Herald.

but it did'nt. Walsh lay on his back
stiff as arail and seeming as lifeless.
When the men hauled him out of the
cell his right arm was out in front Of
his face and when they laid him IN the
floor the arm would not be pushed
down. For half an hour he held it in
that strained position without a move
ment. Then the doctor tickled him
and the burglar had to twitch the
muscles of his face. That twitch salts
fed the doctor and j~ailers that they had
an aggravated case Of "possum'' on
hand and the doctor went home. The
turnkey detailed a prisoner to watch
Walsh and went to bed. All night
long the young burglar lay on the iron
floor motionless, but several times his
watcher slipped noiseless up to him
and saw his eyes close quickly. AT
breakfast time the .A.possum' got up
and went to his cell. Yells Of derision
from the other prisoners greeted him.

are quite low, as you know, while
French beds are so high that a step lad

with a feather bed to put over you,
even in the warmest weather. A tray

You slip into this great coat. put your

of wood placed under the neck; but
looks too hard, and I carry a rubber
pillow to take its place. A paper Ian

are much afraid of the dark.

Cleveland (Ohio) Special:-One of

W worked by a criminal in this city

night by Sidney Walsh, the young Eng
lishman locked up for wholesale burgl-
airy. His counterfeit insensibility was
not momentary, but lasted for hours,
and was SO apparently genuine that
several times the jail officers were in
clined to think that the entorprising
burglar would burgle no more on this
earth. About 9 o'clock Sunday even
ming the prisoners in the upper cells set
up a wild cry for help. Turnkey Joe
Goldscn was on the out side Of the
prison in the Office. Listening, he
could distinguish amidst the noise
shouts that one Of the prisoners was
dead or dying in his cell. The officials
rushed in and found Walsh stretched
out on the floor Of his room perfectly
rigid and to all appearances dead. He
was pulled out at once and laid on the
corridor floor. Then tho jail men chat

dashed water at his eyes without a bit
Of effect. Somebody telephoned for

Fun For the Bows.

About two weeks ago a nephew of
Judge Van Brunt. accompanied by
four friends, entered a well-known New
York restaurant late at night and
stirred up a qurrel with a party
of which Mr.. Maurice Barry
more was a member. Young MI.
Van Brunt, who takes pride in being
called ga blood" and who is an anna
teur pugilist of no mean quality, sue
ceeded in securing what all the party
were hunting for. In other words, he
managed to draw Mr.. Barrymore-not
knowing that that gentleman for three
years held the queens cup for the mid
dle-weight championship of England
Into a controversy which ended in
the satisfactory and extremely COM
plete demolishment of that branch of
the Van brunt family. None of the
Van Brunt friends interfered, and MI.
Barrymore's intimates who were with
him, stood around and barred out any
thing in the way of contact with the
pugilists. WhenMr. Van. Brunt was
completely, beautifumlly, and satisfac-
torily licked, he got up and owned it
like. a man, though the getting up was
somewhat uncertain, and the party
passed the rest of the night in applying
beefsteaks to his eye, and in reciting
the heartfelt and at this time %appropri-
ate legend called "For He Is a Jolly
Good Fellow" 4 large crowd of on
lockers who had enjoyed many exper-
fences of New York life, declared that
so fair and uninterrupted an encounter
Of the fstic kind has newer before been

The fact of non-interuption was
possibly to some extent traceable to the
presence of both policemen of that beat

took place.-Bostom Herald.

The sherman-L Logan Dispute.

EaY&-pE.
Il is said By those aquainted with the
facts that, had it not been for General
Sheoman's own action, no documents
unfavorably affecting him would appear
in the forthcoming volume from Gener-
al Logan's pen, entitled 1.-THE Volun-.
teer Soldier Of America Logan, al
though believing himself most unjustly
treated by Sherman, had steadily refus-
ed to give publicity to any personal
letters which might place Sherman in
an embarrassing position; but after
Logan's death, Sherman appeared in
print with much e%fusiveness, and caus-
ed to be published certain private cor
rsepondence between the two, whereby a
political secret, sacredly guarded by
Logan since the days of Lincoln, was
made public in precisely the same
garbled form of which Sherman makes
mention in a recent card to the New
York Herald. The letters in which the
martyredL incolnwas arraigned, were, it
is alleged, furnished the New. York Trib-
une as published on the 2Sth of Deem
Der, 1886, with Sherman's knowledge
and assent.
The forthcoming volume from the pen
of Logan, entitled the ''Volunteer
Soldier of America" will contain not
only letters of General Sherman rela-
ting to the fragrant act of in Justice perpe-
trated upon Logan after the death of
Mcpherson, but also a letter from
General Joe Hooker showing the part
he, as a West Point officer, enacted I'M
der disappointed ambition; and also
containing his estimate of the military
character of Logan. The memoir of
which accompanies the volume will
make public for the first thine an Incl
dent demonstrating the incompetency of
General Halleck, and fixing upon him
the failure to capture the whole rebel
force at Corinth. The volume makes
no attack upon West Point officers SIM
ply because of their graduation from a
military school. The very highest trib-
utes are paid to Grant, Sherman Han
cock and other West Pointers, including
a recognition of the merits of General
Sherman. In fact, all meritorious
West Pointers receive a need of praise;
those only that proved their unworthi-
ness during the crisis of the late REBEL
ion are severly handled by the volun-
teer oficer-the author of the book.
The letters and documents giving an
inside history of events at Atlanta have
never been published before, and their
publication in the coming volume has
been assented to only because of sut1i-
eient warrant therefor arising after
Logan's death. The book is a mastery
study and exposition of our present
military system, showing it's defects
and pointing out the remedy for it's
evils. 1t is a book of much research,
combining instruction with amusement,
and will become a standard contribu-
ton to the literature of our country.
